Let us know should you get clarification from TK.
I used the upgrade calculator and thought it would be acurate. Why would anyone want to pay the same number of miles to upgrade a flight as to buy it outright?

Question is, as an Elite member, how best to get hold of TK. Their UK number never works, the Turkish number has you on the phone for ages trying to get through and i submitted a query online, but not holding my breath. May try emailing the UK help desk?

Any ideas?
